Review Roundup

To anyone who knows the Canon EF 70-200/4 L IS (like those who switched from Canon to Nikon in the past), the Nikkor will immediately look familar (except for the colour, of course).

This telephoto zoom lens from Nikon is something Nikon users have been crying out for, for years. It covers the popular 70-200m range with a constant maximum aperture of f/4, which means this lens is considerably lighter weight than its f/2.8 equivalent. It also sports Nikon's latest Vibration Reduction technology, which promises sharp hand-held images at shutter speeds up to five stops slower than would be possible without. Nikon's Nano-Crystal coatings have also been applied to lens surfaces to help suppress flare and ghosting.Read the full review »

Overall, the answer is "yes". Nikon's f/4 lens is every bit as good as I remember its Canon counterpart being, and leaves very little to desire in terms of image quality. It is, however, a different beast than its faster cousin.Read the full review »
